Justice Minister Tudor Chiuariu publicly demanded apologies from the Reuters news agency, as well as the rectification of an article published today about the anti-corruption campaign lacking results in Romania.
The examples of poor management of the anti-graft campaign were counted the activity of Chiuariu, the stalling of the criminal file against former PM Adrian Nastase and the limited attribution of the National Integrity Agency (set to check the dignitaries' wealth).
The press release of the Justice Ministry claims that the information in the Reuters article was based on false data. The Ministry emphasizes that during the past few weeks a former prime minister, a former president and a minister in office were officially charged or sent to court.
Chiuariu also accuses the journalist of breaking the professional deontology by not demanding an official point of view of the Ministry. For the affected image of the institution and the country, Chiuariu demanded Reuters to apologize.
